Monday, 13 Jan 2025

The Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, Budi Gunadi Sadikin, visited the Tuan Besar Syarif Idrus Regional General Hospital, also known as Kubu Raya Hospital, in West Kalimantan on Friday (10/1). This visit supports President Prabowo Subianto's program to upgrade hospitals in Indonesia.

Kubu Raya Hospital is one of 66 hospitals set to be upgraded to type C status, moving up from its previous type D classification.

The visit aimed to provide support and assess the condition of Kubu Raya Hospital, which is the only hospital in Kubu Raya Regency receiving this upgrade.

Dr. Asep Ahmad Saefullah, the director of Kubu Raya Hospital, stated that this upgrade will significantly improve healthcare services. Collaboration from all parties is essential to ensure the successful development and enhancement of hospital facilities.

The upgrade is expected to not only enhance service quality but also expand benefits for the community.

With the transition to type C, the hospital will work to address existing shortcomings, including medical facilities, healthcare personnel, and other supporting infrastructure.

"We are committed to achieving type C status to better serve the community," said Dr. Asep.

As a type D hospital, Kubu Raya Hospital faced limitations in facilities and healthcare services. The upgrade to type C is anticipated to improve service quality and increase healthcare accessibility for the residents of Kubu Raya Regency.

Dr. Asep expressed deep gratitude on behalf of the Kubu Raya Hospital family to the central government, President Prabowo, and Minister Budi for their support in elevating the hospital's status.

According to him, with the upgrade to a type C hospital, RSUD Kubu Raya will be able to provide better services, not just in capacity but also in medical expertise and supporting facilities. The hope is that the community will directly benefit from this improvement, leading to a significant positive impact on local residents.

This hospital upgrade is also expected to boost public trust in the healthcare services offered.

"With the hospital's status rising to type C, we hope its benefits will be much broader, allowing the community to receive more optimal care," Dr. Asep added.

He further stated that this hospital upgrade is expected to be a first step in improving the healthcare system in Kubu Raya, positively affecting the quality of life for people in the Kubu Raya district.
